1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The relationship between the ERCC1/2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the clinical outcomes of the platinum-based chemotherapy in the non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still inconsistent and inconclusive despite extensive investigations have been conducted to address this question. In this meta-analysis, we aim to further explore the prognostic value of the ERCC1/2 SNPs in NSCLC by analyzing all currently available evidences. Relevant studies were searched in PubMed, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The inclusion criteria were platinum-based chemotherapy in NSCLC patients and evaluation of clinical outcomes in relation to the ERCC1 C118T, ERCC1 C8092A, ERCC2 Asp312Asn, and ERCC2 Lys751Gln. Clinical outcomes analyzed in this study included the overall response rate, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS). Odds ratio (OR) or hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to examine the risk or hazard associated with each SNP. A total of 46 studies including 9,407 NSCLC patients were qualified for this meta-analysis. For ERCC1 C118T, the T allele was associated with a poor OS (HR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.04-1.75); for ERCC2 Asp312Asn, the Asn variant was linked to an unfavorable OS (HR = 2.07, 95% CI = 1.11-3.88); and for ERCC2 Lys751Gln, patients with the Gln variant have a worse OS (HR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.05-1.41) and PFS (HR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.07-1.71). In addition, the main findings of the ERCC1/2 SNPs on chemotherapy toxicity were also summarized. This meta-analysis suggested that the ERCC1 C118T, ERCC2 Asp312Asn, and Lys751Gln may be useful biomarkers to predict the clinical outcomes of the platinum-based chemotherapy in NSCLC patients.
